Steps:
- Prepare your grill: Prepare the grill for high, direct heat with one part of the grill for lower, indirect heat. The grill is hot enough when you hold your hand about an inch over the hot side, and you can only hold it there for about a second.
- Rest the steak: When the steak has cooked to your liking, remove from the grill and place on a cutting board. Cover with aluminum foil to hold in the heat while the steak rests for 10 to 15 minutes.

GRILLED MARINATED FLANK STEAK
Flank steak, a flavorful yet affordable cut of beef, gets a salty-sweet boost from Michael Ruhlman's wonderful marinade. It also gives the meat a nice charred flavor, with or without an outdoor grill: as the marinade caramelizes, it creates aromatic smoke that infuses the meat, right in the hot pan. (Note: Allow 8 hours to fully marinate the steak.)

Steps:
- Marinade: Into a zip-top bag, add ketchup, soy sauce, brown sugar, onion powder, ground ginger, and Worcestershire sauce. Trim away the root end of garlic cloves, smash with the flat side of a knife, and discard the peel. Smash again, then roughly chop and add to the bag. Close the bag and mix the marinade. Makes about 1¼ cups. (Marinade will keep for up to 1 week in the refrigerator and up to 1 month in the freezer.)
- Steak: Place steak into the bag with the marinade. Press out as much air as possible, seal the bag, and distribute the marinade around the meat. Let marinate for at least 1 hour at room temperature or, optimally, up to 8 hours to overnight in the refrigerator. (Note: If grilling after 1 hour of marinating, reserve the marinade to baste the steak during grilling.)
- If the steak has been marinating in the refrigerator, bring it to room temperature before grilling, about 1 hour.Preheat grill pan (or outdoor grill) to medium-high heat. When grill pan is smoking hot, remove steak from marinade and lay it flat on the grill. Let cook for 4-5 minutes, largely undisturbed, pressing down on the meat to enhance grill marks if you wish. After 4-5 minutes, the steak should be lightly charred and no longer adhere to the grill. Lift and rotate steak about 60 degrees to create cross-hatched grill marks; let cook another 2-3 minutes. Finally, flip and repeat process on the other side, 7-8 minutes. (Total grilling time will be 15-16 minutes.)
- After 15-16 minutes, steak should be medium-rare. Meat should feel firm to the touch at the thickest part (alternatively, a meat thermometer should register 125 F at the thickest part of the steak). Transfer steak to a wire rack fitted over a rimmed baking sheet. Let rest to allow the juices to redistribute in the steak, 15 minutes.
- After the steak has rested, transfer to a cutting board. Find the grain of the meat, then thinly slice against the grain on a bias. Garnish with cherry tomatoes and greens, and serve immediately.

Tips:
- Choose the Right Cut of Steak: Select a flank steak that is about 1 1/2 to 2 inches thick and has good marbling. This will ensure a tender and flavorful steak.
- Prepare the Marinade: The marinade is what gives the steak its flavor, so take the time to make a flavorful one. Use a combination of olive oil, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, onion, and herbs. You can also add a touch of honey or brown sugar for a slightly sweet flavor.
- Marinate the Steak: Once you have prepared the marinade, place the steak in a shallow dish and pour the marinade over it. Cover the dish and refrigerate the steak for at least 4 hours, or overnight. The longer you marinate the steak, the more flavor it will absorb.
- Cook the Steak: When you are ready to cook the steak, preheat your grill or oven to the desired temperature. If you are grilling the steak, cook it over medium-high heat for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the steak reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. If you are baking the steak, cook it in a preheated oven at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for about 20-25 minutes, or until the steak reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the Steak Rest: Once the steak is cooked, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing it. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the steak, resulting in a more tender and flavorful steak.
Conclusion:
South Beach marinated flank steak is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. The marinade infuses the steak with flavor, and the cooking method ensures that the steak is tender and juicy. Serve the steak with your favorite sides, such as roasted potatoes, grilled vegetables, or a simple salad.
